| Aanvullende informatie |
Corinth's colonial coinage under Domitian reflects the city's unusual status as a Roman refoundation — Julius Caesar re-established it as Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis in 44 BC, erasing the Greek city destroyed by Mummius in 146 BC. The colonial title in the legend is thus a genuine administrative designation, not ceremonial flattery. Provincial bronze of this type circulated alongside Roman imperial issues in the Peloponnese but was struck entirely on local authority.
